Wendell, NC: Culvert Rehabilitation Project

Posted by Infra on Thursday, January 10th, 2013

www.pomonapipeproducts.com – An existing 200 feet long steel plate culvert running under highway 64 near Wendell, NC was identified by NCDOT as requiring a maintenance plan to extend its service life. After several options were evaluated, an aluminum structural liner plate liner and headwall system was fabricated and supplied by Pomona Pipe Products of Greensboro, NC. The ability for this material to be custom fabricated allowed the new culvert to be customized to line the existing culvert. Traffic in the the area will flow as normal during the re-line process, as this technology allows most of the construction to take place within the existing culvert, underneath the highway. The new culvert which drains Bunn Lake will provide years of service life for the State due to the durability of the aluminum alloy it is manufactured from. – pomonapipe on YouTube
